The manager of Manchester City, Pep Guardiola had in the past reacted to the rumors of the club breaking the financial fair play rule.
The Spaniard was speaking in an interview about the finances of Manchester City with the Guardian in May 2022. This was his response when he was asked about the possibility of the Cityzens breaking the financial fair play rules.
When they are accused of something, I ask them to tell me about it. They explain and I believe them. I said to them: If you lie to me, the day after I am not here. I will be out and I will not be your friend anymore. I put my faith in you because I believe you 100% from day one and I defend the club because of that.
However, Guardiola is yet to speak on this current accusation by the Premier League. Manchester City released a statement reacting to the Premier League accusing them of breaking numerous FFP rules.
Speaking in May last year, Pep Guardiola said he told Manchester City he would leave if he found out the club had lied to him about their financial affairs. pic.twitter.com/vgHqSbVY78
